Abstract
An enclosure for acclimatizing a micro-propagated plantlet includes a sealed growing chamber for the plantlet. The enclosure has a closable opening for providing nutrients to the plantlet and a humidity control to selectively reduce the humidity within the chamber over time to acclimatize the plantlet.
Claims
1. An apparatus for acclimatizing a plantlet, the apparatus comprising: an enclosure forming a sealed growing chamber for the plantlet; a closable liquid inlet in the enclosure; and a humidity control on the enclosure to periodically reduce the humidity within the chamber to acclimatize the plantlet.
2. A container for hardening plantlets, the container comprising: a cover reversibly coupled to a base, the cover and base forming a sealed growing chamber; and the cover being of a translucent material and including a liquid inlet and at least one sealable opening, the sealable opening being reversibly sealed by at least one sealing member.
3. The container of claim 2 wherein the cover is made of a translucent plastic.
4. The container of claim 2 wherein the cover is impermeable to gases.
5. The container of claim 2 wherein the cover is impermeable to water.
6. The container of claim 2 wherein the at least one sealable opening is located on the cover.
7. The container of claim 2 wherein the at least one sealing member, seals the at least one opening located on the cover.
8. The container of claim 7 wherein the at least sealing member is impermeable to water.
9. The container of claim 7 wherein the removal of the at least one sealing member from is configured for permitting gas exchange between the chamber and the environment.
349708 1/2405
10. The container of claim 2 wherein the base is comprised of opaque plastic.
11. The container of claim 2 wherein the base is impermeable to gases.
12. The container of claim 2 wherein the base is impermeable to water.
13. The container of claim 2 wherein the coupling between the cover and the base is configured to form a gas tight seal.
14. The container of claim 2 wherein the coupling between the cover and the base is configured to form a water tight seal.
15. A method for hardening a plantlet in a container, the method comprising: placing the plantlet in a growth media with water in the container; sealing the container; removing at least one sealing member from an opening in the container; removing a closure member from a nutrient opening in the container; adding liquid nutrients through the nutrient opening in the container; replacing the closure member in the nutrient opening; removing an additional sealing member from another opening in the container at a selected interval; and repeating the steps after the sealing step until the plantlet has acclimatized.
16. The method of claim 15 wherein sealing the container comprises coupling an interference fit disposed on the container.
17. The method of claim 15, comprising opening the container to ambient conditions after the plant has been acclimatized
18. The method of claim 15, further comprising regulating humidity in the container by : sealing the container by coupling a cover and a base; removing at least one sealing member from a nutrient opening in the cover; adding liquid nutrients through the nutrient opening in the cover;
349708 1/2405 closing the nutrient opening in the cover; removing at least one sealing member from a humidity opening in the cover; and repeating the removing of additional humidity openings to reduce the humidity in the container.
19. The method of claim 16 wherein sealing the container comprises forming an interference fit.
20. The method of claim 16, wherein removing at least one sealing member comprises reversibly detaching a sealing member from the cover.
